Tomorrow, I am hopefully going to apply for substitute teaching. Any horror stories to share before I go through with it? Just kidding, a little . Actually, I’m pretty excited to have something to do other than sit around on my rear end all day while my kitten naps on me. I did go to WalMart today though; gag me with a smurf. I hate that place, and probably spent at least 45 minutes trying to find suitable produce. I can’t wait to live somewhere with a health food store/Trader Joes/Whole Foods etc… By the time I got home I was too worn out to cook the dinner I had planned, Cajun Chicken Pasta. I’m fairly pathetic haha. My brother found the recipe for me with an app on his iPod touch, which I’m still amazed about!

This is turning into a post with a lot of random thoughts all strung together, and I think I like it! Still exploring options for after this semester, and just generally excited! So to close this most random post ever, two more photos. Enjoy!

Loooove the angles and lines and textures of this shot of the chapel at the Air Force Academy! We went to visit one of Chris’s long time friends who is a senior there. We will be going back for his graduation in May and we’re super excited!

And a shot from Garden of the Gods. It’s really really tough to capture something so full of God’s magnificence on camera. This doesn’t nearly do it justice, but it will have to do for now!

Chris and I are in Colorado right now, which is pretty cool! We came to visit the University of Colorado at Boulder for Chris for grad school. It didn’t work out, but it is totally ok. My love affair with the state of Colorado is thoroughly over haha. It was a very enlightening visit, and awesome to see our prayers being answered by figuring out that this is NOT where we need to be. Kinda nervewracking to figure out where we go from here, but it is all good!

So anyway, I wanted to share some photos from our trip so far! Last night we went to Colorado Springs to see the Garden of the Gods, but didn’t figure in rush hour traffic by Denver so it was almost dark when we got there. Today we drove out to the town of Central City and the ghost town of Nevadaville. It was incredible! We twisted and turned around the mountains foreverrrrr then drove up this dirt road to the old abandoned town. Very cool. So, here’s some pictures!

A few pictures from Garden of the Gods…should have some more tomorrow, we are hoping to go back and see it in the daylight!

The sign to Nevadaville and the sign for the trading post. Both pictures taken by the Husband! <3

City Hall. Sweet!
